An atom of gold has a mass of 3.271 x 10-22g. How many atoms of gold are in 5.00g of gold?

1 answer:

3 0

To get the number of gold atoms, you have to divide the mass of the gold by the mass of the gold atom. It follows this simple equation $\frac{mass of gold}{mass of gold atom}$ .

Let x be the number of gold atoms. Plug in the values to a calculator.

x = $\frac{5.00g}{3.271 x 10-22g}$
Both have the same units so the unit gram(g) can be cancelled.
x then would be equal to 1.53x10^22. So there are 1.53x10^22 atoms of gold in 5 g of gold

A chemical indicator that changes colors depending on the concentration of h+ in the solution is called a

DanielleElmas [232]

Answer is: acid-base indicator or pH indicators.

Acid-base indicators are usually weak acids or bases and they are chemical detectors for hydrogen or hydronium cations.
Example for acid-base indicator is phenolphthalein (molecular formula C₂₀H₁₄O₄). Phenolphthalein is colorless in acidic solutions and pink in basic solutions.
Another example is methyl orange. It is red colour in acidic solutions and yellow colour in basic solutions.

Equlibrium 0.006 -0.006 X 0.053 0.006 X 0.053 0.006 X 0.053

Ka = [NH4+] [ OH-] / [NH4OH] = (0.006 X 0.053)^2 / 0.006 -0.006 X 0.053

Ka = 1.78 X 10^-5

What methods were used to clean up the Chernobyl and three mile island accidents?

Assoli18 [71]

Answer:

Electric evaporator has been used to clean up the Chernobyl and 3 mile island accident.

Explanation:

About 14 years back, there was a puff of radioactive steam from the evaporator used in the "Three-mile island" nuclear plant. It took two years for the electric evaporator to clean up the 2.2 million gallons of water that have been destroyed because of the nuclear power plant accident.

The steam that came out of the electric evaporator carried a radioactive form of hydrogen and tritium with itself. Cost of clean up was $1 billion.

Need help ASAP! How many moles of sodium nitrate are in 0.25 L of 1.2 M NaNO3 solution?

Setler79 [48]

Answer:

$\boxed {\boxed {\sf 0.3 \ mol \ NaNO_3}}$

Explanation:

Molarity is a measure of concentration in moles per liter.

$molarity= \frac{moles \ of \ solute}{liters \ of \ solution}$

The molarity of the solution is 1.2 M NaNO₃ or 1.2 moles NaNO₃ per liter. There are 0.25 liters of the solution. The moles of solute are unknown, so we can use x.

molarity= 1.2 mol NaNO₃/L
liters of solution=0.25 L
moles of solute =x

$1.2 \ mol \ NaNO_3/L= \frac{x}{0.25 \ L}$

We are solving for x, so we must isolate the variable, x. It is being divided by 0.25 liters. The inverse of division is multiplication, so we multiply both sides by 0.25 L.

$0.25 \ L *1.2 \ mol \ NaNO_3/L=\frac{x}{0.25 \ L} *0.25 \ L$

$0.25 \ L *1.2 \ mol \ NaNO_3/L=x$

The units of liters cancel, so we are left with the units moles of sodium nitrate.

$0.25 *1.2 \ mol \ NaNO_3=x$

$0.3 \ mol \ NaNO_3=x$

There are 0.3 moles of sodium nitrate.

DENIUS [597]

Answer:

The mass of potassium required to produce a known mass of potassium chloride

Explanation:

Stoichiometry deals with the relationship between amount of substances, mass of substances or volume of substances required in a chemical reaction. Stoichiometric relationships may involve reactants alone or reactants and products. These relationships are normally in the form of simple proportion.

A typical example is our answer option, the mass of potassium required could be used to determine the mass of potassium chloride produced after a balanced reaction equation is written.
